Don't have any competition trophys, but I got a garage and house full of bone and fur, compliments of Leopold glass...😎

Circling back to the OP question:
I have only incidentally sold or traded Leupold scopes on a couple of occasions. Without a precise count, I think I have in order from most to least: Burris, Leupold, Kahles, and one each Pentax, Leica, Sightron, and a Vortex. Zero Nikon or Bushnell. Happy Trails

If one ignores the usual bickering and nonsense, I tallied them up.
The question: Now that the majority of posters in this section has condemned Leupold scopes and their progeny, what will you use in the future?

There really are two groups - target/competition shooters and hunters.

That's complete and utter BS.

I know plenty of people who like to dial and shoot long range but have never been in any kid of competition except the informal kind with their buddies.
Almost all are hunters who like to shoot accurate rifles at long-ish ranges.
A wise man is frequently humbled.

I have a Swarovski Z5 that I love. The Zeiss Conquest is a great scope too. I have 3 Leupolds but the they left a bad taste in my mouth after I sent one of them back for repair a number of years back and it was not resolved to my liking.
